Let's define Spubs as Clubs before the release of Freecell Solver 1.8.1
and as Spades afterwards. Likewise, let's deinfe Clades as Spades before
the release of Freecell Solver 1.8.1 and as Clubs afterwards.
That way we preserve the fact that the letters "S" and "C" stand for Spubs
and Clades respectively.
In any case, as far as we are concerned the rest of the world defined
Spades as Clades before FCS 1.8.1 and as Spubs after FCS 1.8.1. Likewise,
it defined Clubs as Spubs before this event, and Clades afterwards. So,
who says the rest of the world's terms are better than ours?
This is a re-phrasal of a well-known paradox called the grue-bleen
paradox.

A more experienced programmer does not make less bugs. He just realizes
what went wrong more quickly.
